I. Chapter 42

eve

————————————

......

The emerald bamboo stick rattled, and the cold sword pierced the sky.

At some point, the snow suddenly intensified.

Heavy snow covered all traces......

The ruins of the ghetto were also covered......

......

"Who's that man?"

After the heavy snow fell again, there were no more wanton troublemakers in front of the Qingyan Academy.

Jiang Heng and Shuo Fuji stood in front of the hall, watching the snow fall heavier and heavier.

Shuo Buji replied, "A terrible opponent!"

There are few people in the world who can make Shuo Fuji think terrible.

Especially this person is still at the same level - Zen Martial Realm.

So what's so scary about him?

That's the battle!

Jiang Heng, who only fought with him for one move, deeply felt the cold soul under the cold sword.

This person is different from other Zen Martial Realms, and the strength of this person is beyond the reach of Yan Hongzhu and Shuo Buji, as well as Jian Leng, the three opponents who are also in the Zen Martial Realm.

This can be seen from the fact that Yan Hongzhu and Jian Leng stopped fighting one after another.

Here, there are few that can make the two of them lose their temper in an instant.

And that man was one of the very few—

His name is Ah Ping.

There is no last name!

Even the name is so ordinary.

He is the great disciple of Sheng Wangmen!

As for the origin......

It is said that it was a child from a mountain village whose existence was slaughtered by robbers.

At the age of eight, he broke into the robber's den alone, and in the dark of night, after killing four sleeping adults in a row. Defeated and thrown to the bottom of a cliff.

But still with his persistent vitality, he climbed to Shengwangmen, and also became the first disciple of Shengwangmen with this persistence.

There it is—

They don't pay attention to their background, they only pay attention to strength.

Therefore, Sheng Wangmen has won the Qingyan Ancient School for ten years at this point.

In addition to this well-known background, the most terrifying thing about that person named Ah Ping is his combat power.

It is said that he defeated the old head of the Sheng Wang Sect, a true martial arts realm powerhouse in his twilight years, when he was cultivating the strength of the martial arts realm.

The specific plot of that battle is known only to a few people.

But just this result is enough for him to become the strongest leader among the younger generation of Qingyan Country.

......

Jiang Heng recalled his voice, usually coming from the snow, and usually leaving with his subordinates.

Except for the moment when the sword was drawn, he was such an ordinary existence.

......

In the days that followed, the snow continued unabated.

Almost every entrance to the Qingyan National Capital was sealed, and all streets were also sealed.

The lower houses were buried directly under the snowdrifts.

Fortunately, this is a world where cultivators exist, and just the means of moving the flame true qi is enough to melt the snow in the whole process!

And what about outside the city?

What about the poor who have moved out of the city?

Like Jiang Heng, the one who has this idea is King Xian.

He had already sent more than a dozen monks from the palace to a newly built village outside the city.

They guarded it, so that the snow would not harm the poor people who had moved to the capital.

When Jiang Heng passed, King Naxian was also there, discussing some trivial matters with the village chief who had been temporarily arranged by this village.

When Jiang Heng came over, the village chief left.

The two of them sat by the fire, apparently not enough to drive the chill away.

The alchemy furnace flew out in the ring, and the true qi was injected.

It warmed up a lot in an instant.

King Xian smiled: "Using the alchemy furnace to bake the fire, I'm afraid it's only the head of the Jiang family!"

"I'm not only going to use it for warmth, but also ......"

Jiang Heng flew out of the ring and put two pots of wine by the alchemy furnace to heat up, and there were two flying birds.

They were picked up on the way when they came, and most of them froze to death in this heavy snowfall.

The two of them were drinking warm wine by the fire, eating simple roasted birds and beasts, and chatting carefully:

"The snow should stop tomorrow!" said King Xian, "Tonight is the first of the New Year's Banquet, is Master Jiang ready?"

Jiang Heng smiled: "There's nothing to prepare, it's just to go for a meal!"

King Xian shook his head: "It's not that simple!"

He knew that Jiang Heng was attending the New Year's banquet for the first time, so he naturally didn't know what would happen at this New Year's banquet.

But because of the rules, he couldn't remind him.

just secretly told Jiang Heng: "Brother Jiang, it's better to upgrade the suppressed cultivation to the martial arts realm!"

Jiang Heng glanced at the Virtuous King lightly.

Xianwang Zuoqiu's strength is at the third order of the Zen Martial Realm, with his age and his identity, cultivating to such a realm at this age is still beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"That's a tough guy to deal with......"

Xianwang Zuoqiu looked at the snow-covered Qingyan capital in the distance, and said slowly, "You should have seen it!"

Jiang Heng nodded.

He knew who the man that King Zuoqiu was referring to?

I also understand what kind of existence that opponent is!

In terms of cultivation, Jiang Heng rarely listened to the opinions of others other than the old ghosts.

Although at this moment, Xianwang Zuoqiu said that things are not much of an opinion.

But he did!

After returning to the inn......

Jiang Heng closed the door.

Shuo Buji, who originally came to discuss with Jiang Heng about the first New Year's banquet tonight, felt Jiang Heng's breath surging in front of the door. He immediately stopped......

"Are you finally going to choose a breakthrough?"

......

In the inn, when Jiang Heng opened the meridians of his body, almost everyone noticed that a powerful aura emanated from a room on the fourth floor of the Tianzi Building.

This aura is obviously only in the Martial Realm, but why does it make people so uneasy?

Jinwen and Yan Hongzhu stayed in the same room, although Yan Hongzhu was extremely indifferent to people and mean, but she took good care of this girl. even personally supervised her cultivation......

Xiao Jinwen, who was just like a cultivator, immediately felt this powerful aura.

"Sister Red Candle, is this the breath of Brother Jiang?"

Yan Hongzhu, who was sitting cross-legged in the room, slowly opened her eyes and sneered: "Apart from him, who else can have such a swaggering aura." ”

......

Next to the fourth floor, in the room on the third floor of the Tianzi Building.

At this moment, compared to Qing Liangping's secret surprise, Jian Leng couldn't sit still.

After Jiang Heng showed the strength to confront her senior brother Ah Ping, she began to worry that there would inevitably be a fight between the two of them next.

It's not that you're afraid of losing?

It's just that......

A little more preparation is good after all!

Jian Leng quietly pushed open the door, and her footsteps went directly towards the fourth floor.

Her goal is naturally to make some tricks when Jiang Heng breaks through.

It's just that she didn't have time to do these sneaky things, and an extremely strong force suddenly flew out of Ah Ping's room, knocking her out.

Jane fell coldly in the snowdrift in the courtyard, and her petite figure was instantly submerged in the snowdrift.

It was a long time before he climbed out of the snowdrift.......

The corners of his mouth overflowed with bloodshots, and he looked at Ah Ping's room, where the door was closed......

She knew that he would not allow herself to do such a dirty thing, and it was indirectly disrespectful to him!
